Clandestinex337 Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 OK, so I want to make something similar to this http://www.mangosteencalendar.com/ and someone said using marquee's would work. And I was wondering how I would go about making it so that it displays the data in a SQL database. Thanks for any help also, im trying to setup a apache server on my computer so that i can preview the php pages. And I got the apache, php, and mysql installed. Im just having some trouble with the phpMyAdmin. I installed it, but I am getting this error, and not sure how to fix it. Error MySQL said: Documentation #1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) Thanks Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/47996-news-scroller-using-marquees/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeseus Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 A marquee may work, but Mozilla doesn't always "like" marquees, so you'll have to be looking for a text scroller instead. There are plenty of scripts available if you perform a simple search, but make sure you test them for both IE and Moz before. The website you've given as an example uses a Flash news scroller, not a JavaScript based one. To display a dynamic news scroller, you'll need a working database and then, using some PHP you'll pass the contents of the SQL table to the Javascript that scrolls them. Here is a rich resource of scripts and there are various cross-browser marquee scripts: http://www.dynamicdrive.com I know nothing of setting up apache Hope this helps you a little!
